Workshops

The project has run numerous developmental workshops while developing and refining the DiAL-e framework. Typically, each workshop lasts a full day (though it can be shortened), and participants are encouraged to think creatively beyond their own subject area to develop new designs and examples to support teaching and learning with digital resources. The DiAL-e framework serves as the core of this engagement, and many participants have subsequently used it in their own institutions. If you wish to use the framework yourself, please acknowledge the authors and their copyright.

Unfortunately, the JISC has removed a range of outputs from the project from their servers, so links may be dead. Where possible, these have been identified, and we’ve removed the links.

JISC EdMediaShare

EdMediaShare was a proof-of-concept project managed by JISC Digital Media that made it easy for teachers and learners to find online videos to support learning and teaching, as well as scholarship and research. The site was curated, and embeds links to content hosted by other providers. The site was for users to share videos they use to support their teaching, learning, and research, and to find videos others have found useful. To help users find the videos they need, the project has opted to use Learning Design criteria developed by the Dial-e Framework.

The NewsFilm Online Assisted Take-Up Project: 

The University of Hull was commissioned to develop resources and support materials to assist in the take-up of a new digital video archive, the ITN NewsFilm Online archive. This was officially launched on 3rd October 2008.

The Newsfilm Archive has now been discontinued; however, the project produced an interactive resource that was originally available online at JISC but appears to no longer be curated.

Enhancing Teaching and Learning with Digitised Resources

In developing these resources, the authors identified several generic learning designs that formed the DiAL-e framework. This was used to populate the resource with ideas and exemplars for using the NewsFilm Online archive across all disciplines and subject areas. The framework argues for a non-content-based approach to using these resources and is centred on student engagement.

The RePRODUCE Project: Enhancing Teaching and Learning with Digital Resources

This project, sponsored by JISC, demonstrated how digital resources can be used and reused to support learning and teaching in higher and further education. It is a 20-credit master’s module which runs entirely online for 15 weeks. At the heart of the module is the DiAL-e framework, which underpins the entire learning experience. This is a staff development project focused on supporting academic staff in further and higher education to use and re-use digital resources such as video, sound archives, digital newspapers and more. It featured a selection of resources from the JISC Phase I digitisation projects.

Please contact Kevin Burden (k.j.burden@hull.ac.uk) if you are interested in a credit-bearing programme that includes working with the DiAL-e Framework

The Excellence Gateway Project: Using Digital Resources in Teaching and Learning in Further Education

This project ran from October 2007 until March 2008 and involved 15 FE and 6th Form colleges from across the Yorkshire and Humber RSC region. The University of Hull supported practitioners from selected departments in each college in using and repurposing a selection of digitised resources from the phase I JISC digitisation projects. The final learning packages were originally available on the Excellence Gateway of the QIA website.

EduTube Project: European Project, 2008-2011

No Longer maintained
EduTube is an educational video search platform launched in April 2008. The project aims to organise the best free online educational videos and make them easily accessible. EduTube derives from a large multi-partner European Project
